Permission escalation #55

Open azhinu opened 1 year ago

azhinu commented 1 year ago

Erbele version prev to 3.11.1 asked for a password to save a file that you dont have permissions. But in 3.11 "Authenticate" button doesn't works. And in versions after 3.11 there is no "Authenticate" button. Just message that i don't have permissions to save a file. Is it bug or feature?

It's intended that it has been removed, because of issues with this feature after one of the latest macOS updates. As I don't know if it can be solved with current macOS security architecture, the button remains removed.

Do you know any other application which has such a feature and works with current macOS, then please tell me.
